About this map

The Saint John River defines the international boundary between Maine and Canada, anchoring the northern edge of this Aroostook County landscape. The Upper Saint John River Valley is characterized by its high concentration of French-Acadian heritage, visible in the settlement patterns of Madawaska, Fournier, and Cleveland. To the south, the terrain rises into prominent peaks such as Cyr Mountain, Lake Mountain, and Morin Mountain, which overlook the northern reaches of Long Lake.

Genealogists and local historians can locate established landmarks like Saint Thomas Cem and Saint David Cem, along with numerous family-named roads such as Pelletier Rd and Beaulieu Rd. The map also captures the vital transportation infrastructure of the region, including the Northern Aroostook Regional Airport and the complex network of brooks, such as Factory Brook and Guerrette Brook, that drain the upland woods into the river valley below.
